Ya’ll know by now that I’m all about super simple yet decadent chocolate-y treats. Just skim through the chocolate category on the blog and you’ll find chocolate covered stuffed dates, salted chocolate covered SunButter hearts, vegan twix bars and several versions of chocolate cups just to name a few. So I’m back with ANOTHER chocolate treat that I know you will love!  

Simple to make and absolutely dreamy to inhale nosh on, these chocolate cups are filled with a blend of creamy SunButter, vegan cream cheese and chocolate chips then finished with flaky salt for the ultimate treat!

How to Make Cookies and Cream Chocolate Cups

With a few steps and a little waiting time while they chill, making this SunButter-based, Cookies and Cream Chocolate Cups could not be easier! Best of all, this scrumptious vegan, no-bake dessert is also free from soy, gluten, nuts and refined sugar free depending on the sugar and chocolate used. Let’s get started!

vegan cheesecake cookie dough ingredients:

• SunButter. I used the organic (green jar) variety which is unsweetened, but any kind will be perfect here.
• Granulated sugar. Make sure it’s vegan, or feel free to use coconut sugar.
• Pure vanilla extract. Trust me, you don’t want to skimp and use artificial flavoring.
• Vegan Cream Cheese. Combining with SunButter makes each bite extra smooth and creamy and with so many brands out there, it’s easier to pick one that fits your dietary needs.
• Chocolate Chips. Semi Sweet, Dark, No-Sugar Added – choose your fav.

make the vegan chocolate shell:

While the SunButter Cookie Dough filling is chilling, melt semisweet or dark chocolate chips in the microwave with coconut oil in 30 second increments, stirring in between until glossy and smooth. You can also melt using the double broiler method.

Once the chocolate is melted, spoon 1-2 teaspoons of chocolate into each muffin tin. Use an offset spatula (or back of spoon) to evenly push the chocolate across the bottom and up the sides of the muffin liners to create a cup for the filling.

How to Assemble Cookie Dough Chocolate Cups

Place warm chocolate cups in the freezer for 5 minutes to set, then scoop about 1-2 teaspoons of cookies and cream filling into each cup and press down slightly to fill in the sides. (The amount of filling is based on the size of your muffin cavity). Freeze again 5 minutes just to firm up the filling, then add another spoonful of melted chocolate to each cup, tapping the pan gently to settle the chocolate evenly. Sprinkle with flaky salt then chill.

Once the chocolate cups are fully set up, peel off the liners or pop them out of their silicone molds and devour! These cups are best stored in the refrigerator or freeze for chocolate emergencies🤣!

I hope you love these better-for-you, SunButter-filled Cookie Dough Chocolate Cups as much as we do!
